The SUNNY SOUTH

About Feb. lst. left Florida for
the North VIA. Waycross, Savannah,
Charleston, Wilmington, Petersburg,
Richmond, Washington, Baltimore
and Harrisburg. AT Savannah |
found q nice town. Situated Oh the
Savannah river, IS miles from the
sea. Vessels drawing III #. of
water come to the wharves in the
city while larger vessels have to
anchor down the river 8 miles. The
river is navigable as far rs Agusta.
Savannah has numerous parks and
fine monuments, one OF which is
erected to the memory of Gen.
Pulaski, killed here defending the
city against the British, Oct. ., 1879.
1t has many fine buildings, is great
II. r. centre, and il the only sea port
of any note on the coast OF Georgia.
A dense fog prevented my seeing the
city to advantage. 1t is the second
largest in the state, Atlanta now rank
ing first. From here Iwent to Charles
ton, s. G. and for sometime before
reaching the city could see tbs eff
fects Of the recent earthquake. The
tops of chimneys were shaken of. In
Charleston many brick buildings are
now a mass of rubbish, others have
fronts fallen in and still others show
great cracks from top to bottom. A
person unaccustomed to these things
would be in fear Of something falling
upon him. Yet the people here move
about just rs if they were not liable
to have another earthquake at any
time. Charleston should have been
Il very nice town, but the raVages Of
war, fire, hurricane and earthquakes
have made it somewhat dilapidated,
and the people are considerably dis
heartened as they have slight earti.-
quake shocks nearly every week. How
ever the people seem to have more en-
ergy here than in many parts OF the
South and are hard ut work repairing
the wreck the earthquake has made. |
staid here only six hours, fearing l
might be caught in Il live earthquake.
This place is situated in the fork Of
the Ashley and Cooper rivers, seven
miles from the sea proper. The
channel has a depth of loft. At low
tide and % at high tide. This chan
mel was commanded by Forts Moul-
trie and Sumpter, both of which
have been abandoned.
In taking the train for Wilmington,
n. c.. met Prof. Carpenter who had
a singing class in Morris several
years ago and had visit with him.
He had been spending the winter i'll
the South for his healt! and expected
to stay for q time III Washington.
Wilmington ls situated Oh the Cape
Fear river, 81 miles from the sea and
has one of the best harbOrs along the
coast. It was used more than any
other by the blockade runners during
the war. It's an enterprising place
and much lumber, tar. rosin, turpen-
tine and cotton are shipped from here
to Liverpool. From this point went
almost through Goldsbora, Weldon,
and Petersburg to Richmond and this
is in part the same ground traversed
by Sherman in his march from the
sea to Richmond Petersburg is noted
as being the place where many hard
contested battles were fought. Here
Gen. Grant was repulsed on June 10,
1854 with loss of 10000 men, but af-
ter many hard fought contest final
ly captured the place. 1t is situated
on the Appomatox. has numerous
railroads and is an important place,
having a good water power at the
falls of the river.
